Trapper or Fisher???
I really cant tell which is better, at first fisher seems way better, but the value of the saved resouces by making mass crab pots may outweigh the benefits.. Idk if crab pots are even important tbh..

Honestly I'd go with fisher, more money gained. Trappers catch small frys used in fertilizer and the only benefit I see with them is the lobster. Also you can learn to make a "worm bin" that gives anywhere from 2-5 bait a day which makes the "no bait used in trapper" perk almost unnecessary and really how many trappers do you need? As soon as you hit the Skull Cave and the Quarry you'll be rolling in resources in the long run. Trust me and become a fisher for your sake.

mass crab pots take a ton of time to harvest... fisher is better, unless you hate fishing and just want to level it

Depends. If you have a farm of crab pots then theres no point of fisher but remember that Willy Chews up your money to get you that bait. Fisher is good I make about 1800 a day by level 10 fishing and I get like +200 for the treasure I find. So it depends. :tabbycat:

The idea of farming crab pots everyday sounds fruitful, but seems like a lot of work

eh, you will get used to It. I have a whole farm of crab pots down by the ocean the whole line of the ocean is crab pots

I guess my logic is, Fishing isn't very good money to begin with. Half the day Fishing will usually only get you, at most, 3k. Usually less.

So I go for crab pots. Equally useless, but takes less time.

The only two perks worth taking are Pirate (more treasure) or the one that makes crab pots always give fish. (Great for certain dishes, like Escargot or Lobster Bisque.) The crap fish can also be used for sashimi, for use in everyday activity.

Just... selling fish for 50% more isn't that great imo.

Hmmm, by that time you would use all your resources for trappers. Going to the mine would be tedious unless you have the miner's perk to get more ores and coal. Now I'm starting to rethink my previous post about a fisher...
